That's probably right. PHL's heat index was 129 and dewpoint 82.

How are you exporting it in such a clean format? -
98/77 currently, high so far was 99.
-
IIRC there was a 130 heat index at Newark that day
-
Yeah, Greenfield has sort of peaked out around 96 - 98. My house has a high of 95° so far but downtown 97°. It’s been very breezy so that might have something to do with it. Even though it is hot as hell, I’m sure there’s probably a few posters who are angered by the wind because it has not allowed us to achieve ultimate peak heat indexes.

2026-2027 Super El Nino

So is the anomaly drop in 1+2 on the CFS v2 for the rest of the summer really going to happen? Why would this happen? Everyone is talking about how crazy high the forecast for 3.4 is but if we think the model has a handle on things then 1+2 should be dropping soon. -

My dentist had season tickets and gave me a pair for a 4 pm mid-July 2001 Phillies/Yankees interleague game at the Vet. His seats were literally on the 3rd row to the right of home plate. The weather was perfect that day - warm and no humidity - truly lucked out with that. Had to leave "early" when the game went to extra innings since it was during a weekday. Just hit 100 IMBY. -
Air was so think and hot in 1995 you could choke. Never before or since have I felt it that hot and humid. Local heat indexes reached 120. I think EWR was over 100 degrees with a DP of 80 if I remember correctly. Worst heat I've ever experienced.

I was just being a troll

The Baltimore City mesonet site just reached 100°. The Bittinger location, located at ~2,600 ft ASL in Garrett County, is on pace for an all time record high.

i would say "that's how we do it!" but folks in like Iowa are like, "just 130 degree difference? that's it?"

Atlantic City (ACY) reported 103° on the 6-hr ob CC: @donsutherland1 -
Just 6 months ago we had -15 windchill and now we have 115 heat index at nothing like a 130 degree real feel difference

The best baseball games that I ever went to were around the seasons that the Mets won the World Series back in 1986. Actually got to sit up in the K Korner during a a game that Doc Gooden struck out over 10. At another game that I attended Darryl Strawberry hit the old scoreboard at Shea Stadium. You had to be at the games back then to appreciate how high up Darryl’s homers went. Probably one of the most exciting teams of the 1980s baseball era.

Eh, I just double checked and the cap on the 18z DVN sounding was weak at best. It was really an issue of nebulous forcing if anything. The convergence from the outflow boundary simply wasn't enough to overcome the weak cap for widespread development. It could have easily gone the other way had surface convergence ended up a bit stronger. Now, the 80% probability given for a watch was way too presumptuous (a MD for isolated coverage, which did happen, would have been better), I'll grant that. But the potential was there and their discussion did a good job delving into the backgroud environment that existed. The thing too is, there will be more conditional / low-predictability opportunities like this all throughout the weekend. Above all though, this MD was nowhere near as bad as the Broyles one a while back.

Seabreeze just passed through and knocked us down to 99
-
And just NOW I joined the 100 club.

-
100% (no pun intended). 0 degrees is also a beacon for big time cold.
-
Raging heat in the lowland along the upper South River 101/82. Impressive. Glad I used my bosses card and shut down business at 11.
-
And sometimes we see 2-3 degree surges late.
-
Plenty of time. I didn't reach 100 until around 5 pm yesterday
